Skrillex's Video Game QuestWhen he's not fighting off scary monsters and nice sprites, Skrillex is saving princesses in the video game world. The GRAMMY-winning dance/electronica artist has contributed his name and music to a new online computer game titled "Skrillex Quest," which transports players to a magical world where they are tasked with saving the Dead Princess Keys.
